The problem was in the "old" Carolina Barcode fonts (version 4) that doesn't work with IE9. Attached to this step in the SI is the new set of Carolina Barcode fonts that works with IE9 (version 6) - 128 new fonts. You need to install the new fonts by running the attached Fonts.exe. It will install the new fonts in addition to the "old" fonts.

Please note that in some instances, the attached fonts.zip may install the necessary fonts in the C:\Windows\System directory and rather than in the C:\Windows\Fonts directory. It is possible that the installed fonts may need to be moved to the C:\Windows\Fonts directory before the desired effect can be achieved.

Once the new fonts have been successfully installed, the "old" names of the fonts in the XSLs must be replaced with the names of the "new correct" fonts.

For example:
In the funcs-style.xsl:
<td STYLE="font-family=CarolinaBar-B39-2.5-22x158x720;">*<xsl:value-of select="$value"/>*</td>

In this case please replace:
'CarolinaBar-B39-2.5-22x158x720'
with:
'CarolinaBar-B39-25G0'.
